Overview

Photos and Description of this 1 bedroom holiday condo in Honolulu - New Ilikai Re-Model #1928

We've done it again after VRBO # 56097 ! Welcome to this newly re-modeled 19th floor 1928 glamorous all new complete with everything homey and gorgeous home away from home. You'll never want to leave!!! And yes, it has sofas and chairs but the photographer arrived before the furniture store delivery truck! lol

Your room greets with a view of Diamond Head, ocean and lagoon. Watch the Friday night fireworks from your oversized lanai. Dine next door at world famous Morimoto Restaurant or go up the glass elevator to Sarento's at the Top of the Ilikai for drinks in the round and catch a magnificent sunset then watch Honolulu twinkle at night with their breathtaking panoramic views. Check your e-mail with your free Wi Fi. There’s a reason Elvis stayed at the Ilikai along with presidents and other notables — maybe it was the 40 year tradition of Hawaiian torch lighting that happens nightly.

The Ilikai is an oceanfront hotel that stands proudly at the entrance to Waikiki, overlooking the most famous beach in the Pacific. A private walkway leads directly from the hotel to the redesigned Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon and the most desirable strand of Waikiki Beach. From our lovely and spacious ocean view room on the 19th floor which faces the ocean and the lagoon, we think you will love it here as we offer relaxing accommodations that suit your every need. You can snorkel, surf, hike, kayak, paddle board, scuba, swim, or shop within minutes and all the equipment is available here.

The Ilikai's convenient location allows for easy access from Waikiki to many popular area attractions. You'll find yourself within easy walking distance to Ala Moana Beach Park, Ala Moana Center, Waikiki Beach Walk, and the Hawaii Convention Center. Downtown Honolulu is located only a few minutes away by car. The outlet malls have buses which pick you up here!

Most all our wonderful guests are returning ones and we hope you will come again and again. You will feel like royalty!

In our enthusiasm to get our photos out to you, we shot before the sofas and chairs were delivered but we were eager to get them to you!!!

About Patricia Rust

I, Patricia, am a travel writer so I know what I look for. I tried to bring every aspect of a traveler's comfort to you in terms of joy, ease, and relaxation in this tropical paradise. As a travel professional, I have accumulated a lot of knowledge which I have translated into this condo in terms of beauty, luxury, and serenity.

Patricia Rust purchased this condo in 2007

Why Patricia Rust chose Honolulu

I bought this 'Dream of Aloha' to live in myself. I must have looked at a kajillion condos and having lived in Hawaii I knew them all! The Ilikai has the others beat hands down! And mine has the perfect view! I asked the hotel desk which was best and they said '28's and that's the one I bought for me! I decorated it with the finest money could buy but circumstances didn't allow me to live there yet so I am using it as a vacation rental so that other people can enjoy it in the meanwhile. I keep the rate competitive and I like making new friends from all over the world!

What makes this condo unique

Convenient to everything, this location can't be beat! Shopping, swimming, surfing -- everything is at your fingertips! It doesn't get any better than this!

This was a wonderful condo. Spent 10 days over Christmas at this fantastic location right on the beach. Watched the Hilton fire works and 2 luaus right from the porch. Condo has everything you really need and is nicely decorated. Makes you feel like you are staying in a luxury hotel at a fraction of the price. Owners are great to deal with. Would definitely stay here again

My husband and I spent 18 days here. Such a beautifully appointed room with a completely modern and spacious feel. It was absolutely spotless (and we're picky). The kitchen was totally convenient and had everything we needed to prepare whatever we wanted. The view of the beach and the fireworks was awesome. I would definitely recommend!

We took some vacation time but I had work with me and this striking new condo was perfect. I had planned to work at the beach but I loved the beautiful sparkling condo so much that I never wanted to leave! From the moment we reached the iconic Ilikai until our key opened the most beautiful one bedroom condo in the entire Ilikai (I know because I looked!), I felt at home but in a super sophisticated lavish environment. It was paradise!

Perfect for viewing the sunsets!

Although the unit was recently remodeled and my review is very late I wanted to write one anyway. Very convenient location. Waikiki beach and Ala Moana shopping center were easily walkable. Bus stops were right outside the front door. My friend and I spent 12 lovely days there. We usually spent the morning at the beach and early afternoon at the pool. There are several restaurants and bars nearby if you do not want to go too far. Watching the nightly show at the Hilton from the balcony was a highlight. I thought it was the perfect spot and would definitely stay there again.

We remodeled another condo and it was so successful that we decided to do this one, too. It is a few floors below in the same stack and we did this in a different color scheme of aquas for the ocean and greys to relax and soothe. Everything you can need or want is provided and we aim for the personal touch with a full kitchen, hair drier, and your detergent and fabric softener. lol Morimoto, a top restaurant on the island vies with Sarentos for that honor maybe with one or two others but they are both right here! You can club there or watch the fireworks from the best view in town -- 1928 which faces them directly! Wow!!!

Kayaking and paddleboats are available in the newly done Duke Kahanamoku lagoon outside with its private beach right next to the ocean's beach where you can surf, snorkel, and ride outrigger canoes! There is also a Catamaran and you can decide what to do from your condo -- do your own surf report -- do all the sports -- you'll never want to leave. Everything is just a short walk from your condo! The shuttle takes you to the outlet mall and across the street is world famous Ala Moana Shopping Center. The property is located at the beginning of the Waikiki beach walk which takes you to Diamond Head along the beach on one side and along world class shops on the other. The grounds are lovely and the glass elevator takes you to the top of the Ilikai for great dining or drinks and entertainment. Choose surfing, snorkeling, swimming, boating, paddle-boating, sunning, all right outside your door in the pool, lagoon, or ocean -- all the facilities and equipment are there and available to and for you!!!! Plus, being in such sophisticated surroundings, you may never want to venture out, but if you do, you'll find everything a stone's throw away! And, it's as quiet as a country lake.
